Quincy Jones

Name: Quincy Jones

Gender: Male

Age: 18

Grade: 12th

School: Bayview Secondary School

Hobbies and Interests: Boxing. Watching football and hockey.

Appearance: Quincy can be best described as scruffy. Constantly wearing jeans and t-shirt, with maybe a light jacket, he doesn’t have the imagination required for style. He pulls it off by looking good. He keeps his dark hair short, but un-styled. His face is slim, strongly defined features, with a broad chin and clear blue eyes. He’s 5’7, and in very good shape, weighing 195lbs, although some regard him as less than attractive because of the muscles. Generally, he could look good, if he cared enough to do something with his looks.

Biography: Quincy looks for the easy life, and by and large, he tends to get it. He’s bright enough to have figured out that he’s not bright enough to really make something of himself, that he’s destined for blue collar work, just like his father, and his elder brother. He’s accepted this. And the moment he did, he lost all ambition.

When he was younger, all that he dreamed about was getting a good job so that he could have all the nice things that all the other kids seemed to have. He wanted something where he could wear a suit, and have a desk, and an office. This dream was destroyed by his first report card. He had tried as hard as he could to get good grades, but just wasn’t grasping any of the subjects. While testing showed that he wasn’t mentally deficient in any way, neither was he gifted. He was a straight C average. He listened to the other kids when they told him that he’d end up just like his old man, stuck in a dead end job.

From this point, he could see his whole future, and accepted it. There was little point in trying if he wasn’t going to get anywhere. His grades slipped to the bare minimum he required to pass. His teachers keep on trying to impress the importance of good grades on him, but don’t have an answer when he asks why calculus is going to help him on the factory floor, or maybe the army, or if he gets really lucky, the boxing ring.

He keeps himself fit because it’s easier to do stuff than when you’re unfit. He keeps himself strong because that makes him more attractive to people who need strong people. And he knows that he can then get those people to do the thinking for him. Not criminal by nature, he’s seen that his dad’s done some stuff that he’s not proud of to keep the family going through tough times, and figures he needs to be prepared for anything. He’s been warned a few times by his father about hanging out with those types of people, but he stopped listening to his family long ago. He’s recently started doing some work for local businessman Enrico Costelli, who appears to have taken an interest in Jones’ boxing career.

In order to keep his body fit and strong, he took up boxing, because he’d enjoyed watching it on TV. It made more sense to him than school. This was a game where he didn’t have to think too hard, just had to think enough to know how to punch, and how to block. That sort of thinking came easily to him. He quickly grasped boxing strategy, and was put in a few practice bouts at his local gym. He was able to hold his own for a few rounds against some of the more experienced guys there, and they started him on his fitness regime. He’s been approached a few times by colleges, who back off when they see his grades. He knows that even if he did get a shot, he’d just find some way to blow it, so why get his hopes up. It’s also where he’s met some of the people that his father wants him to stay away from. As yet, he’s not responded to any of their requests to help them out for a few quick bucks, but knows that sooner or later he’s going to have to make up his mind, or have somebody do it for him.

He had one long lasting girlfriend, Clare Irons, from another school, but they broke it off when she got fed up of his lack of drive to make something of himself. He was not particularly upset by this, as it just meant he had one less thing to think about. Still, he has recently entered into a relationship with Felicia Carmichael, who may provide him with something to work towards.

Advantages: Quince has excellent physical skills, his boxing training in particular being something to watch out for. He’s also emotionally stable and loyal to those he likes.

Disadvantages: He’s not bright or ambitious, and tends to look to others to tell him what to do. Easily manipulated and confused. May look to violence as a first resort, which may make it harder for those he is not close to to trust him.
